Playing Doubles and playing with Club Members in my area I must say DG Players are among the best athletes when it comes to true sportsmanship.
I mean I have never ever been in another Sport where a competitor gets almost excited as you do after you make that great shot.
What a great atmosphere. I am sure there are a few a-holes here and there. But most of the DG Community seems to be about encouragement and support and wanting to see there fellow man enjoy the game as much as they do.
And as far as total passion about the game. I have played football, basketball, baseball, hockey, track and field, Bowling, racquetball,
hiking and climbing, skiing, stick Golf, ultimate, Biking, hunting and fishing, Soccer, softball, and just about every other streneous activity.
But honest to God I have never ever seen quite the level of Passion in any other athletes like I have seen in DG Players about their Sport.
Nada !! None not even by a country mile !!
(Long distance runners might be the closest)
I mean were are talking about people who eat, breathe, have sex and sleep Disc Golf.
Just curious has to how many offsprings have been conceived after a great Round of DG :cool:
I guess it all comes down to the easy accessibility, low cost, and the pure fun and challenge of it
: :D
